In my opinion, I would rather do something I am 100% happy with and enjoy, even if it did pay 2/3, over something that stresses me or makes me unhappy 3/3 salary.

100% happy and being paid 3/3. I'm not moving any time soon.

My job has varied so much in the 10 years, its never gotten boring. Sure I lock horns with the business owners from time to time, but we're professionals and we all know its in the best interests of the business. Just like this new bill system upgrade we got ... I was against it claiming there would be problems, sure enough the system has caused many dramas already. But I don't complain, I find a solution and the bosses are happy. Bring on my performance review! :ermm:

I have regular "business status" meetings with the bosses weekly (such as this morning) which I find boring tho. :)

Hmm, can't seem to find any place that sells holesaw kits for my intercooler piping. Been to Bunnings, Autobarn, Repco, Supercheap, and many others. Who the hell sells such a thing that I consider a simple tool? Might just do it the traditional way and mark out the circle using a suitable cup size and drill out the circumference!

Fitting new piping kit this weekend :ermm:

use a compass, then drill it out with a suitable bit for a air saw blade to fit thru, two second job, then line it with a proper trim molding to prevent rub thru

air saw will go thru it like a hot knife in butter

On another note, who here actually enjoys thier job? Am I considered weird for actually enjoying what I do?

lol. i f**king hate my job. work shit hours, earn shit pay, cop it from some of the worst civilised society has to offer, and generally spend most of my time being stressed out. its awesome.

meh, new start in a couple years time if/when i come back, ill worry about doing something i enjoy then.

    • HELP   Hey all, Is there an accelerator cable from another Nissan that can be used on the R33 GTST RB25DET with a Greddy forward facing plenum?  Thanks in advance  Rob 
    • Or do we think it was installed to give 1 bar of boost max, all day, everyday?
    • So could it be assumed it has been installed intentionally with potentially a power FC boost controller kit? 
    • Had my rig on Matt's dyno at PITS the other day. After a few years between tunes I added a few sensors and swapped intercoolers. Result. 553hp at 26psi. Not bad for an FJ20 that was built in 2007. The problem.. It filled the overflow bottle on hard runs which leads me to believe the head gasket isn't sealing. I have a coolant pressure sensor which was reading cap pressure at 22psi and occasionally overrunning to 23/24 psi on deceleration after a pull. It was not spiking. It has arp2000 head studs and a cometic gasket. As its been 18 years in service, I pulled the engine out and head off. Everything looks good but we obviously have an issue. Where I'm at.. Years ago I had the same issue, I checked the stud tension and they were all over the place. Some at 60 to 70 and some up near 90. I nipped them all to 100ft lbs and this stopped the water push until now. I believe this compromised the gasket back then. What do I do? 2 options are..  1) I bought arp 625+s, which I could put in with a new gasket. Thinking Kameari this time, reassemble and try again. 2) strip the block, get fire rings machined in with copper gasket and try that. I do not want to push it more than 28 to 30psi. I think the turbo will be out by then anyway. (G30-770). My other concern is the long term ability of a copper head gasket. Are they streetable for years? I feel like a new gasket with the new studs will probably suffice, but I don't know. Any thoughts welcome and advice on copper gaskets and fire rings. Thanks!
    • I'm a fan of the JZX110, and the Aristo. Big cruiser cars, and with the factory cars, super comfortable and feel like you're driving an armchair! And the JZ motors are a pretty nice engine too, especially with some basic mods.   The import process, and the need to be able to trust people, and the fact there's so many scammers around is what ever puts me off wanting to go through that ordeal!
